Start by using a notcher or the tin snips to cut a rough shape around the giraffe, to remove it from the main piece of sheet metal.  Once it's separate, start cutting carefully along the template outline with tin snips.  Cut out the ears too.

If the metal becomes warped from the edges of the tin snips, just smooth it out on the top of the anvil with some light hammer blows.

Drill 1/8" holes where marked for the rivets.
